Abstract
A two arm robot for selectively manipulating a workpiece comprising an elongated cross beam assembly having an elongated axis extending between opposed ends, a frame assembly supported by the cross beam assembly for selective linear movement parallel to Y and Z axes and for selective pivotal movement about the elongated axis, the elongated axis being parallel to the X axis and the X, Y and Z axis being orthogonal, a pair of arm assemblies supported by the cross beam assembly for selective independent linear movement parallel to the X and Y axes, a wrist assembly operatively supported by each arm assembly and including a motor for selectively moving the wrist assembly about a rotation axis parallel to the Z axis, and motor and mounting structure for moving the arm assemblies relative to the cross beam assembly parallel to the X and Y axes.
